Can someone comment this code please


Recommended Posts

I have a program that I have been getting help with in these forums and I am not sure what some of the code does. Could someone please comment these lines to help me move along with this please. Also I would like some good links for autoit functions and progressive tutorials from beginner to more advanced users if anyone can recommend some.

#include <GUIConstants.au3>

#Region ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=
$Form1 = GUICreate("AForm1", 400, 229, 193, 115)
$edit_field = GUICtrlCreateInput("", 40, 52, 245, 21)
$btn_test = GUICtrlCreateButton("btn_test", 308, 52, 75, 25, 0)
GUISetState(@SW_SHOW)
#EndRegion ### START Koda GUI section ### Form=

; Load the database.txt file if it exists or stop the script
Local $f_in = @ScriptDir & "\database.txt"; 
$fh_in = FileOpen($f_in, 0) 

; Check if file opened for reading OK
If $fh_in = -1 Then 
MsgBox(0, "Error", "Unable to open file.") 
exit;
EndIf 

While 1 
$line = FileReadLine($fh_in) 
If @error = -1 Then ExitLoop 

If StringInStr($line, ";") > 0 Then  

ConsoleWrite($line & @CRLF)

; here use stringsplit for splitting line

EndIf
WEnd

FileClose($fh_in)


While 1
    $nMsg = GUIGetMsg()
    Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
           
        Case $btn_test
            $t = GUICtrlRead($edit_field)
            MsgBox(0, "test", $t);

            If $t = "1" Then 
              ;; use shell object with windows media player now
                ShellExecute(@ScriptDir & "\1.avi");

            ElseIf $t = "2" Then
              ;; use shell object with windows media player now
                ShellExecute(@ScriptDir & "\2.avi");
            EndIf

    EndSwitch
WEnd

What does "CASE" do?

Switch $nMsg
        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE
            Exit
           
        Case $btn_test
            $t = GUICtrlRead($edit_field)
            MsgBox(0, "test", $t);

            If $t = "1" Then 
             ;; use shell object with windows media player now
                ShellExecute(@ScriptDir & "\1.avi");

            ElseIf $t = "2" Then
             ;; use shell object with windows media player now
                ShellExecute(@ScriptDir & "\2.avi");
            EndIf

    EndSwitch

What does "CASE" do?

The Switch function selectively chooses what to do based on a given value. In this example, it chooses based on the value of $nMsg. In the case where the value is equal to $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE (a global constant that is inside the GUIConstants.au3 file) it executes that code, and in the case where it is equal to $btn_test it runs that code instead. When the value is neither, nothing gets executed and it just moves on to EndSwitch, and the loop around it continues.
